Whether you’re working with HDV, XDCAM HD, DVCPRO HD, AVC-Intra, Avid DNxHD, or a combination of multiple formats, frame rates, and resolutions, you get the world’s most advanced film and editing system, plus capture and monitoring capabilities, with Media Composer Mojo DX.

Mix and Match Frame RatesWork with mismatched media without rendering or restriction. With the new Frame Rate Mix & Match feature, you can mix and match SD and HD formats at 24, 29.97, 30, 50, and 59.94 fps in the same timeline. Eliminate the time and money spent on external transcoding and frame rate conversions, and enjoy real-time, broadcast-quality playback

Sync with Pro Tools EditorsWith the Video Satellite option, Pro Tools editors can now use a Mac OS X-based Media Composer system (in addition to Windows Vista and XP) as a Pro Tools Video Satellite, meaning you won’t have to transcode video, render effects, or copy files for them. Learn more about Pro Tools interoperability with Avid systems in this white paper.

Deliver Masters in AVC-Intra FormatEasily integrate into the popular Panasonic AVC-Intra pipeline and deliver final masters in AVC-Intra (P2) format for further handling and playout. With new AVC-Intra encoding, you can work with any P2 project in its original native format, from acquisition to delivery, for the quickest project turnarounds.

Expanded GFCAM SupportWith this latest release, you can instantly access and edit Ikegami GFCAM 100 Mb-formatted material (in addition to GFCAM 50 Mb material) directly on GFPAK media or an AMA Virtual Volume through AMA (Avid Media Access). Get the fastest GFCAM workflow from shoot to edit, with full native support for the format and all metadata.

Be More Creative and ProductiveWith new features, tools, filters, and support in the included Production Suite (formerly Software Suite), you can be even more creative and productive than ever before. Create stunning visual effects with new filters and effects in Avid FX 5.8 and Boris Continuum 6. Get higher quality encoding, Mac burning, and expanded codec support in Sorenson Squeeze 5. Create music tracks with more ease with SmartSound Sonicfire Pro 5. And author and burn DVDs and Blu-ray Discs with Avid DVD by Sonic 6 (Windows only).

Editing Done Right

Storytelling on the Cutting EdgeWith the industry’s most powerful, accurate, and flexible editing tools around, you can cut smarter and faster than ever. Trim on the fly with your mouse or keyboard, use dual-rolling trim, or nudge frame-by-frame. Slip and slide clips quickly with comprehensive 2-, 4-, or 6-frame display modes. And customize the interface, shortcuts, and keyboard layout to maximize your speed and comfort.

Scripted Editing Made EasyTake the work out of editing movies, television shows, and other script- and transcript-based projects, such as documentaries and reality TV. The unique ScriptSync feature automatically syncs all relevant clips to your script phonetically, so you can find the best takes fast. Line up dailies to the script in minutes — not hours — giving you more time to refine the story instead of digging through bins.

Mix and Match MediaAdd and edit practically any combination of PAL, NTSC, SD, and HD formats in real time — regardless of the resolution or frame rate — in the same timeline, without rendering or transcoding. Whether you’re editing online or offline, you can mix and match media of different formats, codecs, resolutions, and frame rates, and enjoy real-time broadcast-quality playback.

Management You Can Count OnWhether you work alone or as a team, never worry about losing source material and rendered files with the most reliable and robust media management available keeping track of all project assets and metadata for you. Create custom metadata fields to track media the way you want. And easily search, sift, and sort to find information beyond the scope of OS-level searches.

Experience the fastest tapeless workflows in the industry with AMA (Avid Media Access). Directly access XDCAM HD/EX, P2/AVC-Intra, and GFCAM media and metadata on a connected disc/card or device without having to transcode, import, or rewrap files. And download support for additional formats as they become available.

Work Natively with SD and HD CodecsStart editing footage right away, with native support for a wide range of SD and HD codecs, including DV, HDV, XDCAM HD/EX, DVCPRO HD, AVC-Intra, and GFCAM. No need to transcode, even when mixing codecs in the same timeline.

Total ConformStreamline your offline/online workflow, and get a seamless path to finish and master projects, with complete integration between Media Composer and Avid Symphony and DS systems. Directly share offline projects and media for finishing, with all media clips, edits, and effects directly available, so you can start the online without delay.

Work with RED, Stereoscopic, and Other Single-Frame FilesWith MetaFuze*, you can quickly merge RED (R3D), DPX, TIFF, QuickTime, or even stereoscopic 3D files from film scanning or CGI systems into a single native Avid DNxHD or uncompressed media clip for editing. You can even display and edit 3D material offline — without conforming — using industry-first stereoscopic editing tools and workflows.

Sync with Pro Tools EditorsMake the audio post workflow easier by making projects directly accessible to Pro Tools audio editors through Video Satellite. No need to render effects, transcode video, or copy files for the audio team, as they can simply tap into any Media Composer system to open and play Avid HD and SD sequences (including DNxHD) in high quality, in full resolution, and in sync with their sessions.

Film FocusedFor film, you have the industry's most powerful and accurate film workflow in your hands with the award-winning Avid Film Composer toolset. Save time with automatic audio and video syncing and seamless tracking of timecode, Keykode, and other metadata.

Timecode and Subtitling EaseWith the Timecode Generator, you can create onscreen timecode displays in real time to speed up any online or audio post workflow. And with the SubCap Generator, you can easily create open captions and subtitles, and import and export in Avid DS and standard EBU N19 subtitle formats.

Ready For DeliveryWhether you need to output your project for the web, electronic delivery, or back into the tapeless pipeline, you have the tools you need to quickly deliver your work in the absolute highest quality. Optimize your video for the web, and burn projects to DVD and CD. If you’re using a Windows-based system, you can also author DVDs, Blu-ray Discs, and fast-turnaround approval DVDs (use native authoring tools on a Mac).

Smoother BWF WorkflowsEase the post audio workflow when exporting timeline audio tracks as BWF (Broadcast WAV) files. Just insert the sequence timecode based on your project type as you’re exporting the tracks to create a fast and easy sync reference for downstream processes that don’t support OMF or AAF, such as slave playback devices.

* MetaFuze works with Windows-based computers, including Windows XP and Vista, Macs running Windows through Boot Camp or other emulation.
